168 MANUFACTURING

New FS40 series model for worlds most common shop sizes

168 Manufacturing, a brand of Precision Tool Technologies that designs and develops CNC machine shop automation technologies, announces its new FS40 series of FullShop™ Automated Coolant Management Systems. Optimized for the most common CNC machine shop sizes, the FS40 enables these shops to take their productivity to the next level. Due to its modularity, one FS40 system can automate a few CNC machines or expand to accommodate up to 40 CNC machines.

Like our flagship FS120 system, the new FS40 series monitors and replenishes all CNC sumps with optimized top-off ratios. This turnkey system is easy to install and consists of a centralized pumping station, controller, distribution manifolds and level sensor that drops into the machine tool sump. Compared to the FS120, which has a footprint of 50 by 60 inches, the new FS40 is even more compact — 30 by 30 inches.

Other features of the FS40 include:

  • A modular concept that supports five remote fluid nodes
  • Per CNC concentration control: top-off at 0.5 to 20 percent
  • Collaborative with our FullShop coolant health app
  • Industry 4.0 features — e.g. remote operation and teleservice
  • Simple low-cost installation

Like the FS120, the new FS40 enables unattended CNC operation, bringing “lights-out” capabilities to machine shops. Now, instead of operating one or two shifts a day with a shop full of operators, these shops can run high-volume jobs unattended overnight, keeping the spindles spinning 24/7 and unlocking greater productivity.

Dormer Pramet T8430 New Turning Grade

Pramet launches new flagship turning grade – T8430

The team at Dormer Pramet have upgraded the flagship Pramet PVD grade T8330 with a new coating generation, providing increased durability and performance.

The T8430 has quickly been marked as the most versatile grade in the Pramet assortment for general turning and heavy roughing, even in unfavorable conditions.

Developed for steel and cast steel, the Pramet grade also performs well in stainless steel, cast iron and super alloys.

A multi-layered PVD coating optimized for increased productivity, the T8430 provides up to 69 percent more durability, especially when machining raw steel blanks or difficult materials, such as Inconel and Stellite.

A unique Titanium-Boron-Nitride (TiBN) top layer offers build-up edge reduction and improved performance, while a thick TiN coating gives low compressive stress for crater wear resistance.

In addition, the hard AlTiN of the T8430 secures flank wear resistance, with a bright gold TiN layer to support wear detection.
